Ok.... I did some tests, and didn't find anything conclusive. But I will try again tomorrow.

I tried starting her, and she normally fires first time. This time she kept turning over, and twice the whole system died completely, with a jolt - possibly the starter motor??

After about four tries- she fired, and ran smoothly- with the voltmeter wavering around 14V this time.

No idea what is going on, my thoughts are maybe an intermittent short??

Thanks again.
